Chocolate Brownie Oatmeal Cookies!
These chocolate oatmeal cookies are like a cross between a chewy brownie and an oatmeal cookie. They’re soft, chewy, and super chocolatey. The chocolate flavour is rich and the texture is amazing! They have quickly become one of my favourite cookies ever.
This recipe for Chocolate Brownie Oatmeal Cookies is made with simple, natural ingredients. I used a combination of oats and oat flour for a gluten-free base, and naturally sweetened them with maple syrup. I used a combination of cacao powder and dark chocolate chunks to get that rich chocolate flavour. You can also use cocoa powder and chocolate chips here.

Just made these. I enjoy them a lot although they’re not very sweet. My kids want me to make them again but add a little more sweetener.

Glad to hear you still enjoyed them! They are definitely not overly sweet, but extra sweetener is always an option 🙂
